This year’s biannual Epic Trip took us on an adventure up the Northwest coast of Oregon and Washington, and over to see two volcanoes and the Painted Hills. We were a diverse group of cars this year, made up of BMWs, Porsche, a Fiat, F-type Jaguar, Audi and a Lexus SUV. As always, this was a trip to remember.

The first Silver State run – aka Reno to Vegas – was easily one of ROC’s largest events. With the goal of always making each run better than the last, for the second time around we used a new starting location and 50% new trails. Despite some interesting weather to start, this event turned out to be another great run.

2018 turned out to be the year of tree themed road tour events. The first of these road tours being the Redwoods Road Tour. This was a modified version of one of the very first road tours we did under the new club name. Starting in a new location, the group headed to Point Reyes to see one of the most well known lighthouses on the West Coast, Point Reyes Lighthouse.

In one of the largest events we have hosted to date, we ventured for the first time onto the trails of Arizona. We joined forces with another offroad group with the plan of making our way, by trail, from Prescott, AZ to Las Vegas, NV. With many firsts, this adventure provided numerous out of the ordinary experiences, with a lot of twist and turns that normally are reserved for soap operas.

Early in the morning on March 9th 2018 drivers met in a hotel parking lot for the Raptor Offroad Community Destination Mint 400 run. The goal for this day was to run the infamous Power Line Road from Barstow, CA to Las Vegas, NV for the 50th Mint 400.

The first Road Adventures event of 2018 was a fun day drive on a new loop up to Clear Lake. This drive used some familiar fun roads from our Napa drive and added a bunch of new sections. With 21 cars attending, the group ranged from BMW, Porsche, Jaguar, Ope, VW, McLaren, Audi, and Mustang.

With the SEMA show always falling on the first of November, we decided to do a road tour to Las Vegas to coincide with this event. Our 3 day adventure started in the central valley of California. We headed east to our first stop at Rail Town. Here, participants were able to take a trip through the past, and to the silver screen, by riding on the most filmed railway in the nation. After the train ride, we took a tour of the roundhouse to see the museum’s collection of engines and cars.

The close of the 2017 offroad season was another great event. ROC Fest III had the largest number of participants to date, with 28 trucks registered. Amongst our many participants, we had trucks that traveled from Washington, Arizona and Colorado to come play. While not everyone was there each day, everyone in attendance had a great time camping, telling stories, hitting the trails for some epic drives and, of course, some shenanigans.
